“Omics” insights into plastid behavior toward improved carotenoid accumulation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Plastids are a group of diverse organelles with conserved carotenoids synthesizing and sequestering functions in plants. They optimize the carotenoid composition and content in response to developmental transitions and environmental stimuli.

Better Droplet Deposition and Internode Shortening Effects of Plant Growth Regulator EDAH on Maize Applied by Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Than Electric Knapsack Sprayer

Agriculture, 2022
Maize (Zea mays L.) lodging is an important factor limiting its yield increase worldwide. EDAH (containing 27% ethephon and 3% DA-6) is commonly used to decrease lodging. There is an urgent need to select efficient application methods of agrochemical for

Meta-QTL analysis explores the key genes, especially hormone related genes, involved in the regulation of grain water content and grain dehydration rate in maize

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
Background Low grain water content (GWC) at harvest of maize (Zea mays L.) is essential for mechanical harvesting, transportation and storage. Grain drying rate (GDR) is a key determinant of GWC.
